Split Raiders outplay Placeholder; Fantastic go to the lower bracket!

/0 Comments/in , /by

In the first playday of the regional League of Legends playoffs for this season, the eight teams participating played their first matches in this double-elimination bracket.

A total of four matches were played out this Saturday. Harmony were able to overcome Fantastic Esports in the only BO3 that went to all three games today. It was an intense matchup that saw the Croatian Fantastic Esports give their best, but their opponents were dedicated to taking the win – and they did. The other Macedonian team wasn’t victorious. Mental Boomers managed to past Brotagonists1g and secure a spot in the next winners’ bracket round, while Brotagonists1g will fight for survival against QSKE Gaming.

Since we mentioned QSKE, let’s talk about their match today. After a great group stage, they came up versus Fiko Izdaja in their first match in the Regional Playoffs. QSKE Gaming’s Serbian squad was unable to compete with Fiko Izdaja and lost that game 0-2. Split Raiders and Placeholder are the two teams that round up the playoffs team list. Their match ended up with a victory for the former, who are now set up to play Harmony next Saturday

/0 Comments/in , /by

The first playday of this fourth FIFA21 SWISS round was played out today. Filip “FIFAFICO” Babić and Esad “NKOS_esad1memic” Memić ended this playday victorious, while Leon “Sardinho213” Šardi and Emir “Sulja” Suljović failed to secure another win.

FIFAFICO and Sardinho213 played the first match as players from the 2-1 pool. The two of them were looking to grab the second playoffs spot, but only one of them could do it today. FIFAFICO was the better one in today’s duel and ended up going to the playoffs, while Sardinho213 now has a 2-2 score and will look for his chance in the fifth round.

One of the players from the second match, NKOS_esad1memic or Sulja, were bound to leave the league after this playday. It was a fierce match that ended with a final score 4:5 in favor of NK Osijek’s player. That means that Sulja will join Marko “klaic” Klaić in the eliminated portion of the table. Sardinho213 and NKOS_esad1memic will wait for the next playday to finish to see their opponents in the final round of the SWISS stage.

Omerta eliminated in the fourth Brawl Stars round!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Just like Round 3, this SWISS round of Brawl Stars was concluded in only one playday, with Lil Surprise, 09 Gang, and Noble Elite Red taking the wins.

After QSKE Gaming’s disqualification, the number of matches was reduced so we scheduled the third round to be played in only one playday. The same applied to Round 4, so we had the chance to watch a total of three matches today. The first one for the night was an elimination match between Lil Surprise and Omerta. It saw the former take a comfortable 3-1 win against the Serbian squad and secure a match in the fifth round.

Next up were Tora Gold and 09 Gang. Tora Gold were a part of the 2-1 pool before the beginning of this round, while 09 Gang had only one win so far. However, a great showing from 09 Gang evened their standings – now they are both a part of the 2-2 pool of the SWISS table. To round up the playday, Noble Elite Red took on Mayoi in a match that had a playoffs spot on the line. Noble Elite Red got a clean 3-0 win and joined Noble Elite BLK in the playoffs.

This week in A1AL: Round 4 starts; League of Legends goes regional!

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

This week in A1 Adria League we will see the fourth rounds of Brawl Stars, FIFA21 and CS:GO while League of Legends will enter its Regional Playoffs stage!

Brawl Stars

Our regional Brawlers have had an amazing season so far. The third round was done in one playday, so last week we didn’t have any Brawl Stars action. The plan remains the same for the fourth round – all three matches of the round will be played this Thursday, while next week we will be taking another break from the arenas. Tora Gold and 09 Gang are the teams from the 2-1 and 1-2 pools, respectively, that will be clashing this time in the fourth round. Besides that match, we have one 2-1 match between Mayoi and Noble Elite Red and one 1-2 duel between Omerta and Lil Surprise.

FIFA21

Round 4 of FIFA will commence with a duel between Leon “Sardinho213” Šardi and Filip “FIFAFICO” Babić – two players that are now a part of the 2-1 pool and are fighting for a spot in the playoffs. When the winner of this match gets decided, we will watch one more match, but this time it will be a survival match. Esad “NKOS_esad1memic” Memić will take on Emir “Sulja” Suljović for a chance to stay in the League. While NKOS_esad1memic has the role of a favorite, Sulja has proven time and time again that he can upset the biggest names in the region.

CS:GO

Last Sunday, ONYX managed to qualify for the playoffs over 4glory who fell short of a win for the first time this season. 4glory will have a chance to fix their mistake this week when they are facing PORTUGAL in the 2-1 bracket. Besides this duel that is sure to raise some eyebrows, we will watch Cobalt Esports take on Onlinerss in the second duel of the day. While the winner of this second match will survive for the fifth round, the losing side will have to say its goodbyes to the League and join Fullshock as one of the eliminated teams.

League of Legends

Over the last couple of weeks, the League of Legends teams from Serbia, Macedonia, and Croatia have been playing in their respective National Playoffs stage to advance further in the League. Now, that the National Playoffs stage came to an end, the Regional Playoffs phase of this season’s LoL action can start. The bracket is already known and we have the four pairs that will start this double-elimination journey to the top. Harmony is taking on Fantastic Esports, Brotagonists1g will fight Mental Boomers and QSKE Gaming will have Fiko Izdaja as their opponent. The fourth match will see Split Raiders face Placeholder for a spot in the upper bracket semifinals.

ONYX qualify for this season’s CS:GO playoffs!

The end of the third round for CS:GO saw the reigning champions earn their spot in the playoffs in the derby versus 4glory.

Two matches marked the end of yet another CS:GO round in which we got our first qualified side. ONYX have been dealing with internal problems and recently did massive changes to their roster, but the squad managed to win their match against 4glory even with their old team. Vladyslav “⁠bondik⁠” Nechyporchuk and Dmitriy “⁠jR⁠” Chervak – two experienced veterans joined the team’s lineup today as a change to an international team was announced. As far as the match goes, it went  to three maps – 4glory got Inferno and ONYX responded with two wins on Train and Mirage, respectively.

Match two ended a bit quicker than the first one as only two maps were played out. Cobalt Esports and Good Game were a part of the 1-1 pool before the third round. While it wasn’t a decider match, this result managed to shape the incoming rounds in a different way. Namely, Good Game, who were considered favorites by most won the match after only two rounds and locked in their second victory in the seventh A1 Adria League season. Cobalt Esports, on the other side, now reside in the 1-2 pool together with Onlinerss and Midnight.

League of Legends enters its Regional Playoffs stage!

/0 Comments/in , /by

With this League of Legends day concluding, we now know the names of the eight teams that managed to qualify for the next stage of the A1 Adria League.

Croatia

Three Croatian teams will continue their journey to the Regional Playoffs. Split Raiders advanced through the National Playoffs stage undefeated and beat Fantastic Esports 2-0 in the Grand Finals after Fantastic forfeited their previous duel. Before the final match started, Fiko Izdaja was defeated by Fantastic, but since they already won their fair share of matches, they will also play in the next stage.

Serbia

An action-packed BO3 in the Serbian finals saw QSKE Gaming outplay Mental Boomers and secure the first place in this National Playoff. Just like Split Raiders in Croatia, QSKE didn’t suffer a single loss on their way to the Regional Playoffs. Mental Boomers, on the other hand, fough through the lower bracket and defeated Placeholder in the LB finals.

Just like Croatia, Serbia will also boast three teams in the next stage – QSKE Gaming, Mental Boomers, and Placeholder.

Macedonia

The remaining two teams that will join the Regional Playoffs come from the Macedonian group. They are Harmony and Brotagonists1g – two squads that showed their quality since the very beginning of the double-elimination bracket. With these two additions, the team list is completed.

FIFAFICO goes 2-1; klaic out of the League!

/0 Comments/in , /by

The third FIFA21 round of the season concludes with a victory by Filip “FIFAFICO” Babić, and a sour loss that sees Marko “klaic” Klaić leave the A1 Adria League.

After Brawl Stars’s third round ended the previous week, we started this A1 Adria League week with our second scheduled game, FIFA21. This playday of FIFA started with a short duel between FIFAFICO and Emir “Sulja” Suljović. It was short because Sulja surrendered the series at the beginning of the second match – he was already five goals behind (1:6), and he didn’t think that his abilities would be able to match FIFAFICO today.

While the first series ended after less than two matches, the second game of the day went to all three. Firstly, Armin “arminho0307” Hasanbegović squeezed past klaic with a 1-0 win. Match 2 came along and klaic decided to win his place in the third match. He got 2 goals in arminho’s net and entered the third match confidently. However, arminho had other plans and eliminated klaic in the final game of the day.

We already have the first known playoffs player, and it will be getting tougher than this after every match. Don’t forget to watch the FIFA21 streams every Friday, and in the meantime, check out today’s stream:

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

While Brawl Stars is done for the round, the remaining two titles in the SWISS round still have another playday to go before reaching Round 4 of this season’s group stage. League of Legends is a step away from the Regional Playoffs!

CS:GO

The second part of the third round will see the currently unbeaten teams, 4glory and ONYX, clash it out to see who will finish the group stage with a flawless 3-0 score. The reigning champions are facing difficulties as they recently parted ways with two key players in their roster, Filip “aVN” Belojica, and Petar “HOLMES” Dimitrijević. aVN proceeded to join his former rivals, 4glory, and HOLMES’s next step is still uncertain. Their match starts at 16h, this Sunday.

When the 2-0 duel comes to an end, it will be time for Good Game and Cobalt Esports to enter the server. Both teams suffered one loss and this round will change much in their approach to the League. The winner will be just one win away from the playoffs, while the losing side won’t get another chance if they lose again. The Macedonian squad is facing Lazar “Laza” Nikolić’s team at either 18 or 19 o’clock, depending on the length of the previous match.

CS:GO SWISS 3-2

FIFA21

While we will be skipping Brawl Stars this week because of all the matches being played last Thursday, FIFA21 will continue as usual with two derbies on the schedule. Firstly, Filip “FIFAFICO” Babić and Emir “Sulja” Suljović are going to play their match on the virtual stadiums of FIFA, and the better player will be put in the 2-1 bracket with Tarik “amke2001” Novo and Leon “Sardinho213” Šardi.

Armin “arminho0307” Hasanbegović will fight for his chance to stay in the League this week. His opponent will be Marko “klaic” Klaić, who is yet another player who hasn’t celebrated a win yet in this season of the league. While the winner will celebrate his survival in the League, the player who will fail to triumph in the match will have to leave the seventh A1 Adria League season.

FIFA SWISS 3-2

League of Legends

The three countries participating in this stage of the League of Legends A1 Adria League continue playing their brackets in the National Playoffs stage.

Croatia

Fiko Izdaja had a great second League of Legends playday in the Croatian playoffs. They eliminated not one, but two teams in the lower part of the bracket and secured themselves a spot in the lower bracket finals against Fantastic Esports. The teams that they eliminated were RainDrop (2-1) and BL Gaming (2-0). Meanwhile, Split Raiders are currently waiting in the Grand Finals and their great form isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

Macedonia

Two matches marked the end of the second playday for Macedonia as well. FunTeam and Cult were the first ones to clash, with the former taking the win without losing a single round. After Cult, Brotagonists1g were ready to eliminate their Macedonian rivals but failed to succeed in their task. Instead, FunTeam got another 2:0 win, putting them in the lower bracket finals against Reborn Esports.

Serbia

Serbia had a much more active playday than the rest of the countries. A total of four matches saw interesting changes in the bracket for all the teams participating and QSKE is currently having the best chances of entering the playoffs. Mental Boomers had the best success after QSKE, as they won two matches – one against SuppDiff (2-1) and one against OnlyFans (2-0). Currently, Placeholder and Mental Boomers are scheduled to play in the lower bracket finals for next week.
